our Second Gas Wen.

The directors Of the Napoleon Gas and on
Company have selected the old Stout proper
ty north of the depot upon which to put down
the second test we'll. The company have an
option on the property for thirty days after
gas or oil has been found. Work will be CON-
menced at once and the we'll will be COM
pleted 1900 feet deep within sixty days. May
we find gusher.
It is vain to speculate upon the probable
results of the discovery of gas in this vicini-
ty in quantities sufficient TO pay. II found it
would exert an incalculable influence in in
creasing property values and expanding the
trading and industrial interests of the peo-
pie. 1t would direct speculative capital from
other gas regions, to this locality, so largely
favored by railway and water advantages. 1t
is not extravagnnt TO say that it would double
the property values and population of the
town within year. We contemplate the
immediate future with high hopes and eager
expectations. Natural gas is not by any means
new thing. In boring for salt water more
than fifty years ago, these reservoirs of gas
were sJEuCk III NdClOuS pldCcS III OlllOJ anu
gas used in furnaces in which the kettles were
placed to boil down water to secure mer-
chantable salt. 1t was at too early period
in the development of manufacturing inter-
ests to be fully appreciated, besides coal
could be had in the regions where the gas
was discovered at small outlay for mining
and transportations, and wood could be had
for the chopping. So that the coming of the
time when coal as fuel for steam purposes
should be an important item in the expense
account of extensive manufactures was not
considered. But the world has been moving
all the time 1t has come to pass that this
natural product is considered sort of neces-
sity to the manufacturer. And now in the
fulness of time the secret places in which
this natural illuminant and fuel were stored
have been discovered by the free use of the
drill. So that while natural gas is not by any
means new discovery in Ohio, the great
economy and convenience which attends its
use has stimulated the search for it, and the
result has been extraordinary success in find
| ing it.

A Word With Correspondents.

We are always glad to have correspondence
from the country and from all the towns in
this vicinity. Our correspondents have been
very accommodating, and without pay trou-
bled themselves to give the news. We would
be glad to have correspondence every post
Office in the county. Of course, they would
not be expected to write every week, but only
when there was news to write. Correspond
ents should always sign their real name, moi
for publication but for protection to the pub
Usher. 1t is not expected that the editor of q
newspaper knows anything about the truth
fulness of statement made in a correspond
ence, and relies wholly on the integrity OF
the writer. No one writing to newspaper
should make statement personal or other
wise, that he would not make to the party
concerned. We do not make habit of tell
ing who our correspondents are, but it some
times becomes a necessity. No one should
require the editor to stand all the blunt when
q correspondent has given an offense. As we
have stated we are glad to have our friends
send us the news, but we do not expect or re-
quire anything written that will give our cor
respondent trouble.

The Short Gut r. r..

Mr.. S. L. Boughton. who was called to
Cleveland on Thursday last by telegram, to
meet the officers of the Lake Shore Road in
regard to the building of the Fremont, Bowl
ing Green & Butler railroad, returned at noon
to-day. He informs us that he met President
Newell, of the Lake Shore, who expressed a
great desire to have the road go through. In
fact they are more than anxious that it should
be built, and propose to go to work at once.
President Newell says his company will
build the road, if the towns along the line will
contribute toward the expenses, and Mr..
Boughton has already set to work to find out
about how much money can be raised, and In
reply to our question if he thought the road
would be built, Mr.. Boughton says, Il feel
as confident that the road is sure thing for
this town as though the cars were running on
it now. Yes, it will be built, of that feelcer-
tain."
Now, let our citizens go in with full de-
termination to have this road. 1t will take
little money, but you must not expect to get
railroad for nothing. Boom her up and let
no chance escape to bring it about.-Botot-
ina Green Ne,cs.
